When you build gcc native, did you run into files that were having dos newlines and gcc 2.95.3 not being able to deal with them? Mainly in libdecnumber or something like that.

Hello, Mark.

CRLF is a real problem (on UNIX and other LF systems) for the preprocessor lines ended with \ because the actually escaped character is CR and not the expected newline !

Some of my earlier patches caused that problem, now I carefully check that all the patches are in UNIX format, and compressed with bzip2 in order to avoid them being altered in the transport.

It looks that you have applied the patch for native build provided by MiKRO (it patches libdecnumber). It has been attached in text form to his email, so it may have been saved with CRLF when you saved it.

My latest GCC patch includes the MiKRO patch (except for strtod/strtold). You can use it safely.

Sorry if my guess is totally wrong.
